I've been an enthusiastic user of Tivo's Comcast On-Demand offering in SF area, and just noticed today that the browsing interface has been updated from a Low-Def (old UI) style to an HD new style interface.

Also while viewing a program, the progress bar is now HD style rather than SD style.

I did notice more weird error messages when entering the On Demand menus than before, so maybe this is still a work in progress.

Also noticed a glitch where sometimes when scrolling up/down a list after using page up/down commands, the scroll location resets itself back to the top of the list. Annoying when navigating some of the long lists.

But upside is you can see a lot more characters of each program and get a side-screen that shows a short description without clicking on the programs, so its a big win.

Also it seemed to me that the scrolling FFW/RRW is smoother with the new system, although the lag on commands is still about the same.

Transitioning into OnDemand still switches resolutions back down to SD and then back up to HD based on the "Please Wait" bug.

I just got On Demand last night (on only 1 of my premieres - weird) but it's very low-def. Looks awful. Is there anything I need to do to switch it to the HD UI? I have that turned on for everything else.

Since this recent update to on-demand in SF bay area Iv'e noticed the following feature:
Now new shows have a "new" icon beside them just like new shows in the live TV guide.
However there is now a major problem with xfinity Ondemand. now when you highlight a program and press info, instead of detailed show info you get option to hide/show ADULT content. This is especially bad for me because I would use the info to highlight a show with an exclamation to let me know how many days I had left to watch program before it deletes. Now there is no way to see. I'm sure the info button was working before this recent update. Can anyone avdise where this bug should be reported? BTW- Iv'e been enjoying Smithsonian channel programming on Ondemand. It can be found on under History/nature catagory. I was suprised to see this available since comcast isn't offering Smithsonian channel.

I just noticed this and I think its great to see Comcast/Tivo really working to improve the App.

I have yet to jump around the menus since I usually use Tivo Search and than pick an a Episode via the Episodes section. I personally find this easier than digging around the menus and discovering the show isnt available.

The improve info bar is great, next thing I would like is to see is the episode description when I hit info and allow a right click to bing up the description.

In the Bay Area here also and I totally agree that these are great improvements. Hopefully they can add pictures/images for content that is selected and or allow the Video preview to be shown as well at some point in the future, there is now a lot of waisted space above the Xfinity menus. Overall, great progress and much more useful and pleasing to the eyes. I hope that they can continue to improve things such as the transition from TiVo to Xfinity and reduce or get rid of the Please Wait screens.
